Rincon Beach Club Resort | Lieutenant J.D and Elena wedding

Working in Santa Barbara, driving along beautiful Hwy 101, and photographing a wedding is a lot of fun. This is what we did for the wedding of Lieutenant J.D. and Elena. It was hosted by the Rincon Beach Club in Carpenteria. I LOVE this venue. Everyone worked very hard to make their wedding a dream come true. J.D.'s family flew in from Ohio to join in the celebration. The day before the wedding, I got to meet everyone at the rehearsal dinner. I believe that this is the BEST way to "break the ice" with all of the family members and the bridal party, so that when the day of the wedding arrives, everyone feels comfortable with me. The religious ceremony was also held at the Rincon Beach Club, Melissa Sylvester and the staff did a remarkable job of making sure that things were ready for the enjoyment of the guests. The bride and groom had a fantastic time and so did their college friends who came from all over the United States. Now, I will show you some of my favorites of the day. By the way, J.D. and Elena are enjoying their honeymoon in Paris and Italy, right now.

Gloria-The pictures are amazing and you did a wonderful job! As J.D.'s mom and dad, we will treasure every photo and every minute of that wonderful day. Too bad you can't be here to take the pictures at the wedding reception in Ohio (we wish we were from South Carolina-it's a lot warmer in the winter!) later this month, Gloria! Thanks again--can't wait to see the rest!

This wedding was muy bonita! I cannot confirm nor deny what was taking place on the dance floor. All I can say is JD and Elena you two are an amazing couple and we wish you all the happiness this world has to offer.Love Eddie and Simi.
